1:06 am
puglet

then in the evening our well pump switch froze up and hubby had to call a friend out and they got it going just at dark
1:06 am
sprite

omg... how uncomfortable :( Glad they got it back to work themselves.
1:07 am
puglet

yeah me too! The temps were so cold I was afraid the lines would freeze and cause more of a problem
1:08 am
sprite

that would be a real risk indeed. So glad they got it back going before that happened
1:14 am
sprite

guess we lost jilli to jigidi, grin

1:32 am
rururocks

Lol
1:32 am

1:32 am
sprite

sigh, another illusion shattered...
1:33 am
grannyrose

besides the cold pack might be a tad off-putting...lolol
1:33 am
rururocks


Lol

lolol rose
1:33 am
grannyrose

grannyrose

* groan * this not being able to drive is for the pixies. i so need to go to the bank...and will my head full of drugs allow me to remember whenever we are out...noooo!!!
1:39 am
puglet

Rose after you left Crossy came on and gave you some good advice on the honey-do list-lol
1:39 am
sprite

aw poor rose :(
So very frustrating, all of it. But time is on your side now, hun. Soon, you will be able to do all that again.
1:39 am
grannyrose

oh, and i learned yesterday, no full on physio for 6 weeks...apparently, although the skin will have healed, underneath takes that much longer...
1:39 am
sprite

ok rose... so take your time... easy does it.
1:40 am
grannyrose

thanx pugs, will go and check the chog for yesterday
1:41 am
sprite

advice like: Once your husband has promised to do something, there is no reason to nag him and remind him every 6 months?
1:42 am
puglet

Not sure if he put it quite like that--lol
1:43 am
grannyrose

poor DIL just dropped in. she and dear son had a tiff last night. she wanted a hand to help with the baking she had to do. he was outside, drinking with his mate. she tried the approach...honey you know how i look out for you when you may need a hand doing something? well i need a hand now.
1:43 am
sprite

;)
1:44 am
sprite

didn't work?
1:44 am
puglet

and did that work
1:44 am
grannyrose

son blew up...i told her men are from completely different planet to women. they need to be asked straight out. no pussy-footing around.
1:45 am
sprite

great advice, rose. He probably felt manipulated.
1:45 am
rururocks

I am staying out of this one
1:45 am
sprite

nah, your insight would be much appreciated, ruru
1:46 am
grannyrose

good place to be, ruru. out of it totally
1:46 am
sprite

rose couldn't be in that place, got dragged in kicking and screaming
1:46 am
rururocks

I would have asked him before his mate came over
1:46 am
grannyrose

don has told me on several occasions, just tell/ask me. i don't know when you need help.
1:47 am
sprite

even better, ruru
1:47 am
grannyrose

ummm, said mate lives with them.
1:47 am
rururocks


Oh weird
1:47 am
sprite

my love and I both ask eachother straight up. Much better. No mindreading included.
1:48 am
rururocks

Then she should have asked both of them to help
1:48 am
sprite

would have asked them both then
1:48 am
grannyrose

yah, think, ruru? not sure if/how i am to address that situation. i think DIL is a champ to put up with a third wheel around 24/7
1:49 am
rururocks

She learned from you
1:49 am
grannyrose

and i just wonder...what is going to happen when a baby comes along?
1:49 am
sprite

wham! Good one, ruru.
1:49 am
grannyrose

awww, shucks, ruru
1:50 am
sprite

for the first part, mostly crying, drinking and sleeping, rose
1:50 am
grannyrose

but third wheel is sleeping in future nursery...
1:51 am
Lizlin

Hi again. Showered and ready to go out with 15 mins to spare. Not a bad effort!
1:51 am
rururocks

And that's just the mate sprite
1:51 am

1:51 am
rururocks

Yep. You are good to go
1:52 am
sprite

good job, liz.! Could you please send me an email so I have your email addy? I will send you some more links to fantasy puzzles.
1:52 am
Lizlin

Nothing I particularly want to go to - more of a duty thing. But hopefully some friends will be there too.
1:52 am
Lizlin

Sure Sprite - is yours in your profile.
1:52 am
puglet

Ruru did you get to watch the bronco and chargers game last night
1:52 am
grannyrose

thanx, liz. went very well. i was touched when BIL came up and thanked me for taking care of his mum.
1:52 am
sprite

1:52 am
rururocks

Yes pugs

1:53 am
Lizlin

And yes, Ru - smell good - my fav perfume.
1:54 am
rururocks

Lizlin

Just emailed you sprite!
1:56 am
sprite

lovely, Liz :)
1:56 am
sprite

1:56 am
Lizlin

Surprised! Not! lol.
1:57 am
rururocks

Never smelled a musk
1:57 am
Lizlin

Only the white ones!
1:57 am
Lizlin

My hubby went to buy it for me once and didn't because he said it smelled different in the shop to the way it does on me! Again, surprise!
1:58 am
grannyrose

my fave is green tea by elizabeth arden. ruru, what do you use? brut???
1:59 am
Lizlin

don't know that one but like Elizabeth Arden.
1:59 am
grannyrose

or old spice??....lololol
1:59 am
sprite

lol, indeed Liz
1:59 am
Lizlin

Do you have a sense of relief now the funeral's over, Rose?
1:59 am
rururocks

That's pretty common
2:00 am
sprite

my favorite is Cristobal by Balenciaga.
2:00 am
grannyrose

liz, it's very dependent on the person. my boss uses it and it doesn't smell the same.
2:00 am
grannyrose

liz, it's like a sort of closure. although still lot's to do.
2:01 am
Lizlin

Of course! The way a perfume smells depends on our bodies - surprising how many people don't know that.
2:01 am
rururocks

Mrs ru likes mitsuka..
2:01 am
grannyrose

mitsuka, lovely scent...but on me smells too heavy...
2:01 am
Lizlin

Of course, Rose. We're (sadly) still sorting stuff from when my dad died in 2010 - hopefully getting to the end of it now. The solicitors are really dragging stuff.
2:02 am
rururocks

I don't wear cologne gr...
2:02 am
puglet

You have a wife Ruru
2:02 am
Lizlin

Apart from the physical sorting of belongings.
2:02 am
Lizlin

Smells good enough :)
2:02 am
grannyrose

what about after-shave, ruru?
2:03 am
rururocks

Yes pugs... I do although we are now separated
2:03 am
rururocks

No after shave either gr..
2:04 am
grannyrose

okay, so ruru smells au naturale...that could be a good thing..
2:04 am
Lizlin

Stats for the 8's please - they're not jumping out at me today.
2:05 am
grannyrose

he8, plural of he7, he + short thank-you + a long period of time
2:06 am
Lizlin

2:10 am
grannyrose

2:10 am
Lizlin

Me neither. Perhaps she's deep in the grid.
2:10 am
Lizlin

Hi rbud
2:10 am
sprite

hiya rbud, it isn't a very friendly grid for sure
2:10 am
Lizlin

OK - I've got to go. Will be back later. Thanks again for the clues, Rose. Hugs to all.
2:10 am
grannyrose

2:12 am
grannyrose

*holds sprite tightly* don't you ever leave me, you hear?
2:12 am
rururocks

You were surprised I was married pugs?
2:12 am
grannyrose

rbud, ep4, a long story
2:12 am
sprite

I won't, rose, I promise. Love you way too much!
2:13 am
rbud

fish me, how blind am I, ty!
2:13 am
puglet

kinda Ruru cause you always talk about going to bed with the dog---sorry for your break up though
2:13 am
rururocks

Ah..
2:14 am
grannyrose

ad6, ad + ***al, to do with birth + vowel
2:14 am
sprite

pug, hate to break it to you, but ruru doesn't mean that in a sexual way...
2:15 am
grannyrose

aj6, aj + exclamation of pain + **t, picnic pest
2:15 am
rbud

I'm happily hitched myself, and sleep with a tomcat or two, (wink wink) but not with hubs - he only sleeps in his recliner these days.
2:15 am
rururocks

It is fine pugs..Mrs ru and I are still good friends
2:15 am
puglet

once in a town near us a bank put on this contest on where this cow would make her co6 in a pen with squares painted in it and each square was numberd and the winner won 500. dollars--lol
2:16 am
sprite

that aj is new for me
2:16 am
puglet

thats good Ruru. Do you have kids too
2:16 am
sprite

lol pug!
2:17 am
rururocks

No kids...
2:19 am
puglet

Being alone is kind of sad though
2:19 am
sprite

are you sorry not to have kids, ruru?
2:20 am
rururocks

No ..not really. .. I don't think I would have been a very good parent
2:20 am
puglet

I dont have any and Iam not sad about it at all. Not with all I see others go through with theirs
2:21 am
sprite

am glad. It is hard to have a longing for children and not an opportunity to have them and raise them.
2:21 am
rururocks

I didn't have an easy childhood..and didn't want to repeat those mistakes
2:22 am
sprite

good thinking, ruru. It is hard not to repeat them. We tried our very bests here and still didn't avoid them all.
2:22 am
rbud

of course my tomcats are fixed, lol... but anyway, thanks for the hints, g'rose, was momentarily distracted by son looking for clean clothes
2:22 am
puglet

Iam like Ruru, I dont think I would be a good parent--I would probally be behind bars for child abuse
2:23 am
grannyrose

pugs and ruru, it's okay not to want children. truly it is. if everyone had their 2.whatever kids, we would need to find another planet. trust me, i have had 3, my son has 5..
2:23 am
sprite

lol rbud. Ain't they precious... "Mum, where are my black trousers? Haven't you washed them?"
"Didn't see them. Aren't they still in your room?"
"Oh yeah, right."
2:24 am
rbud

these days things seem to be different, too, kids just don't leave home like they used to, at least not around here.
2:24 am
sprite

never, pug. You have such a gentle heart, you couldn't hurt your children on purpose.
2:24 am
rbud

hahaha, yep, that sounds about right, sprite!
2:24 am
sprite

here neither, rbud. Too expensive.
2:24 am
puglet

I had one Rose and she passed and never had another, so it may have been a sign that that wasent for me
2:24 am
rururocks

That is true be
2:24 am
grannyrose

hey husbands aren't much better...had to remind himself to get the trousers dry-cleaned, and put out the shirt to have it pressed.
2:25 am
rbud

finally got son to do some of his own laundry, yahoo! it only took 22 years...
2:25 am
puglet

maybe not on purpose but I would want them to mind like my dogs---when I say sit, I want em to sit--lol
2:25 am
rururocks

I am sorry pugs
2:26 am
rbud

he's starting to behave somewhat more humanlike since his beloved ALSO lives here now.
2:26 am
puglet

thanks Ru
2:26 am
grannyrose

pugs, and just how would you be taking care of your sister with children demanding your time.
2:27 am
rbud

so that's both kids and their significant others, living with us. *facepalm*
2:27 am
puglet

yeah I know, thats why I say it must of just not meant for me to have my own
2:27 am
rbud

((((pug))))
2:28 am
grannyrose

oy, rbud...*hands out humanitarian award * congratulations or commiserations, take your pick...lol
2:28 am
puglet

I have took in several of my sisters during their pre-marriges and then like Gradyn
2:29 am
rbud

gotta get busy on the new kitchen, it slowed to a halt lately - son and his gf are camped out in it since his summer home is too cold.
2:29 am
grannyrose

lol, rbud, the mind pictures are hilarious..
2:30 am
rbud

but once the new kitchen is in, the old one will be a small bedroom, much better setup.
2:30 am
sprite

you guys are amazing, all of you, for taking in your loved ones in need.
2:30 am
puglet

Is there a chance you and your wife might get back together Ruru
2:31 am
rbud

hubs, of course, hates it all, grumps constantly that they all just need to leave... I say just go with the flow and hope for the best, I don't let it eat at me like he does.
2:32 am
rururocks

No pugs...
2:32 am
puglet

Well I was the oldest and the first to leave and living with my dad was no picnic so as my sisters one by one wanted to fly from the coop they stayed with me until they got jobs and could make it out on their own
2:33 am
rururocks

I moved out when I was 16
2:33 am
puglet

thats too bad Ruru --maybe someone real special will come along for you, I hope
2:34 am
grannyrose

i moved out when i was 17. my dad thanked me years later. he had 4 sons to put through university.
2:34 am
puglet

do you have any sisters or brothers Ru
2:34 am
sprite

ruru deserves a wonderful, warm, witty wife
2:34 am
rururocks

We will see ...I am a long way from looking for a relationship
2:35 am
rbud

I've put up mom more than once, my sis more than once, (both between relationships, jobs, and homes) an old friend and both her little sons... hubs has really put up with a lot, I suppose. but then there were a couple of his buddies, too, over the years.
2:35 am
sprite

*hugs ruru*
2:35 am
grannyrose

poor ruru, and here i am well and truly hitched to don...
2:35 am
rururocks

sprite

cute icon, rbud
2:36 am
puglet

I ran away from home in my teens and hitch hiked all over(it a wonder I didnt get killed) but thats all along time ago and Ive survived
2:36 am
rbud

ty! pretty small to read, though.
2:37 am
puglet

Is your brother older or younger Ru and are you guys close
2:37 am
rbud

I ran away one afternoon when I was 17, myself. borrowed a car and packed it up, moved in with cousins of "fiance" at the time. never asked for another dime from parents. I keep asking our kids why they can't be more like that, hahaha!
2:38 am
rururocks

I have an older brother. ...we are friendly. .but not too close
2:38 am
grannyrose

DH has given me an early christmas pressie. dvd of elysium. planning on watching it later.
2:39 am
sprite

moved out at 16, had to move back in at 18 to take care of my mother, then was kicked out when she sold her house from under us and moved to a tiny cottage with my sister.
2:39 am
sprite

sounds like a plan, rose
2:39 am
puglet

I hope you dont have to be alone for x-mas Ru, thats very sad to think about
2:39 am
grannyrose

ouch, sprite. how rude!!!
2:40 am
sprite

2:40 am
puglet

sounds like we've all have had a hunky-dory life--lol
2:40 am
rururocks

I will be okay pugs...I am happy. ..it is peaceful here
2:40 am
rbud

(really fixing up that new small bedroom with Mom in mind, figure the son and gf will go soon, they want to. and mom's at that age, 84, getting tottery and forgetful.)
2:40 am
grannyrose

don and i were planning on just the 2 of us as usual...but with MIL's passing, i am softening, and thinking of spending chrissy day with SIL.
2:40 am
sprite

peaceful is a very good thing. I like peaceful.

It is for me now...A very good thing
2:42 am

2:42 am
sprite

I hear ya, ruru, mate. Peaceful is good. I wish you peace of mind to enjoy it in.
2:42 am
sprite

do you remember, rose, when you asked us, if you would be thinking of doing something with SIL, to tell you NO? Telling you NO now :)
2:43 am
puglet

Is your peace from above Ru(if you believe and if you dont mind me asking)
2:43 am
grannyrose

maybe i'll get lost between the cranberry sauce and the plum pudding...i can live in hope...also trying to think of don.
2:43 am
puglet

Does Don want this Rose
2:43 am
rururocks

No pugs.. I am not religious
2:43 am
sprite

Don doesn't like her company any better than you do, I think, or he wouldn't name her Fang.
2:44 am
grannyrose

alright, i hear you, sprite...will stick to my guns...no fang until after christmas...
2:45 am
puglet

does it bother you Ru if we or I pray for you
2:45 am
sprite

2:46 am
puglet

I feel right now Rose is going to have Fang there and not tell us
2:47 am
puglet

2:48 am

2:53 am
puglet

2:54 am
sprite

2:54 am
grannyrose

2:54 am
puglet

2:55 am

we put in a couple of radiators, but the in-floor heating went out after about a year with a short-circuit and the firelace doesn't do much, even though we enclosed it Fortunately, the bathrooms have radiators

Hi Ruby & Dianne. We have portable oil-column heaters here , they are terrific for single rooms and have thermostat controls. Both my kids use them in their apartments.
4:17 am
Dianne

I also have one of those (no thermostat though) but it doesn't do as much as my little electric space heater.
4:19 am

It isn't cold enough for the heaters yet but we are supposed to get into the 40's F by next week.

I'm surprised it gets down so low there

That is about as cold as it gets but it feels colder because we are surrounded by water.

hi crossy - hope you're doing better
6:41 am

((ruby)) there are a wide variety of portable heater choices so you do not have to freeze in your bedroom. like someone else said here, there are these nice mini oil filled electric radiators you can get now and I think they have setting for 700 or 100 watts of heat. then there is my favorite for portable heat, ceramic micro furnaces. theses are units that are abou 8 inches square and very portable and they actually use ceramic disks to generate heat.they are very safe even if big shaggy dogs were inclined to tip them over
6:42 am

7:05 am

your resort will be much like ours in that they buy a "block" of time for heavy hydro usage for the snow guns, so once it starts,they will run them non stop to make the base as deep as they can ,then they will stop and coast through march break and into spring
7:06 am
Scrabbler

Yes, they are building up the base now while the weather cooperates.
7:07 am

our hill even "stores" snow for each run in massive mounds, and use the groomers to put a layer on the runs on bad days with no natural snow

She emailed me yesterday that she went to get paprikash to take for lunch at work and found her boyfriend had eaten it all. I asked to what hospital we should sent flowers....you don't take my paprikash from her! Especially since she hadn't eaten it in over a year.

It's a Hungarian dish originally, ruru, but I have modified it to something quite different. It's basically a tomato and sour cream sauce with onions, mushrooms, bay leaves and paprika served over fettucine.

Excellent. Makes for a better holiday for you

You know zooz, I simply decided that the past is the past and just to move forward. No matter how hard we may try, we cannot change the past, so best to just let it go. I hope she feels the same.

Her dad (my ex) is coming over this weekend and I'm putting him to work helping me with some household stuff. He's having a difficult time with his girlfriend (don't EVEN get me started on THAT woman) and I serve as a sounding board and a sympathetic ear for him. His birthday is today, so I'm going to take him to dinner this weekend.

I just remembered why I don't like tangerines. There's more seeds than edible fruit.
11:47 am
Dorens

and precisely why i do like clementines... no (or very few) seeds and even sweeter than tangerines
and Hello Annie
11:48 am
Anniebrook

Hello dorens and Judi
11:48 am
Anniebrook

Eating a comice pear right now
11:50 am
Dorens

eating a salad with too much dressing on it. yucch
11:51 am
Anniebrook

goopy
11:51 am
Dorens

and nasty in my mouth, even tho the dressing would be fine if not too much
11:52 am
Anniebrook

Well, that paints a pretty picture (lol), throw it away
11:52 am
Anniebrook

what kind of dressing?
11:53 am
Dorens

that would have been smart. it is some champagne vinaigrette from trader joe's that my daughter recommended. I usually make my own, and prefer my own, but in a pinch this works. i'm at work and forgot to bring my own in
11:54 am
Anniebrook

I usually make my own vinaigrette. I play with the ingredients and everyone says they like it
11:55 am
Dorens

it really does taste better... i vary the vinegar.. sometimes balsamic, sometimes, sherry, sometimes white wine, red wine... and the amount of garlic and mustard..
11:55 am
Anniebrook

yummy
11:56 am
Dorens

i make it every week and bring some in to school, but it's sitting on my kitchen counter at home right now. been too busy to remember what i usually do by rote
11:57 am

has the weather affected the school openings?
11:57 am

made rum cake for teacher's luncheon on wednesday.. brownies for bake sale today.
11:57 am

are they still calling for more tomorrow? I'm supposed to meet my daughter and sister-in-law in the city and don't want to call it off, but...........
11:59 am
sammysmom

another case for buying olive oil and vinegars by the gallon............. my son , walter, makes salad dressing. he has been doing it for 20 years...... each family member has their favorite of his blends of ingredients . he started writing down what he used and numbering it. all our glass jars are saved for his numbered blends .. another added fun thing for family gatherings
11:59 am

they say snow for friday night-maybe into saturday. see what happens tomorrow. are you driving into the city?
11:59 am
Dorens

yup/ and that sounds look a good idea sm
12:00 pm
Anniebrook

Where do you park? Garage or are you lucky to find something on the street?
12:01 pm
Dorens

depends on the area... W. 34th st tomorrow.... won't find anything on the street there. I've learned to print coupons before I go and the garages are much cheaper that way. there's a website
12:01 pm
sammysmom


yep dorens .. and we make our own of everything that we can... no added preservatives or chemicals.. makes us feel so virtuous and tastes better too.. heh heh
12:02 pm
Anniebrook

dorens, what is the website?
12:02 pm
Dorens

absolutely ... i make my own vegetable broth.. my kids think i'm crazy but i save all the peelings, skins, etc and keep them in the freezer... once a week or so i put them in a pot with water, maybe more celery,onion, carrots, crushed red pepper and voila
12:03 pm
Anniebrook

that's smart, I might start that too and I bet it is a delicious broth too, as broths go
12:03 pm
Dorens

nyc.bestparking.com i think, and icon and central each have their own too. i usually check all three of them.. there's a search engine. you put in the neighborhood, the date, and hours in and out that you expect. they give you choices and some good prices
12:04 pm
Dorens

oh yes it is so much better. (mushrooms give it an earthiness.... i've heard that you can add a bit of soy sauce too). red onion skins make it such a nice color
12:05 pm
Anniebrook

thanks for the websites, wrote them down. will use them.

That also sounds good - of course it's 10.28 am here - a bit early for alcohol! Also 30 C right now, so an iced tea would be lovely! But I do like the sound of mulled cider too!

In 1977 my union was picketing a new movie theater. I fell and broke my elbow on the way to the picket line. I heard tonight that this movie theater is closing. My elbow still hurts.
